What Makes Killing Wrong? And Why It Matters.

Hour 2: If killing is wrong, what makes vital organ transplantation – as it is currently practiced – compatible with morality? We’ll discuss the issue this hour with Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, the Chauncey Stillman Professor of Practical Ethics in the Department of Philosophy and the Kenan Institute for Ethics at Duke University. He’ll deliver the lecture “What Makes Killing Wrong? And Why It Matters” at UT Southwestern Ethics Grand Rounds tomorrow at noon.
